Chapter 45

“Keanu, I…” The words got stuck in my throat as I tried to speak but before I could continue; his hand was sliding under my hair and onto the nape of my neck. Shivers of pleasure slid down my body as he pulled my face gently toward his and kissed my lips.

Drifting from the back of my neck and trailing down my shoulder, Keanu slid his hand up the front of my sweater and massaged my right breast.

Kissing my neck with greedy lips, our pace suddenly seemed to quicken.

I don’t know if it was the height of danger we were in or if it was the hormones racing through my body, but a ravenous lust took over me. Hungry for him, I pushed him flat on his back and climbed on top of him.

The surprise on his face made me giggle as I pulled my sweater over my head and quickly undid my bra. Like teenagers, we were frantic for one another. Sitting up with me straddled on him, his mouth explored every available part of me while I clutched at his hair and pulled his mouth to mine over and over again.

With his face buried within my chest, I threw my head back and gave in to the moment. A primal, inhuman, instinct took over and I released all the angst, pain and sorrow I’d gained over the last few months of my life.

I didn’t care anymore. If I was only going to live a short time, I wanted to live it to the fullest.

Raising my hands over my head and pressing my hands against the ceiling of the van, I rocked my body against his. Holding me by the waist, he lifted me off and laid me down beside him. Pulling on the elastic top of my sweat pants, he raised his eyebrows twice giving me the hint to take them off.

Removing the rest of our clothes, which I found difficult laying down in the back of a van, he started taking full advantage of me.

Running his tongue along the inside of my thigh, I smiled as I anticipated where he was going next. Pleasuring me for what felt like a perfect eternity, he looked up at me, grinned and then positioned himself over me.

Ever so gently, without added pressure to my belly, he entered me and made love to me for what felt like hours.

Whatever horrible events were painted upon our fates, I would remember this moment as my heaven on earth.

A stream of sunlight trickled across my face, announcing the dawn. Stretching and groaning, I cuddled in closer to Keanu’s bare chest.

“Morning gorgeous.” He smiled as he wrapped a large arm around me.

Moaning a happy sound in response, I sighed and fought to open my eyes. Running my tongue over my teeth, I desperately wished I had a toothbrush. I hoped my morning breath wasn’t too bad.

“I wonder what time it is?” I muttered as I reached for my pants.

“Time to go.” Keanu’s body tensed suddenly and his voice was low.

“What? Why?” I looked around quickly and all I could think was—thank god for tinted windows.
